Christian Gifts for Kids: 12 Faith-Based Ideas They Will Actually Wear

Toddler boy in the heather grey Lion of Judah fleece crewneck

The best Christian gifts for kids are the ones they actually use, and clothing gets used every week. A soft hoodie or tee with a Bible verse goes to school, church and the park, and every time they wear it the verse comes along. Below are 12 ideas in toddler through youth sizes. Every one is hand pressed in our Burbank, California studio, and prices run from $19 to $58.

Books, devotionals and Bible story sets are wonderful too. If a kid in your life already has a full shelf, a faith-based piece of clothing is a gift they will reach for on their own, and it starts conversations with friends and teachers in a way a book on a shelf can't.

Why we make Christian clothes for kids

At Christian markets, parents are often surprised we carry baby, toddler and kids sizes at all, because most faith brands only make adult tees. Every piece here is hand pressed by our small, family owned team in Burbank, and 10% of every order goes to Love Life, a ministry that supports moms and babies.
